Asteroids

Project description:

The player is a little rocket ship. He can fire bullets.

The player is either

• restricted to the screen space area, or
• gets teleported to the other side if he goes out of bounds.

Astroids spawn randomly at the edge of the screen and move around.

Enemies spawn occasionally at the edge and go towards the player.

Both asteroids and enemies can be shot.

This project was made reality by using the following library:

• SFML - Simple and Fast Multimedia Library:
  • https://www.sfml-dev.org/
  • https://github.com/SFML/SFML

slappy-test's Issues

Player: Basic movement

Just casual WASD - UpLeftDownRight for now, because I dont immidately have an idea how rotation, throttle and thrust should be handled.

Throttle should be not stopping the player, but continously slowing down until speed reaches zero.

Thrust has to have a limit otherwise the ship will become FUN which we clearly dont want here.

Player: Collision basics

Just declaring since we cant check yet if it will work or not, we can only assume. (reason being is cuz we dont have skybox)

Skybox: Collision

Implement Player: A-B-C-D points, make it display properly.

Player: Rotation

Left - Right -> rotation

Somehow the player object has to update with this.
I am not sure how we should solve this actually.

Skybox: A-B-C-D corners,

Make it display maybe, just until we are making it so we can see it, maybe make it 1-5 pixels less than the resolution so we can see the borders as well until we are making it?

Player: Firing mechanicsm

Continous vector with a loop? Would be cool to do with a straight line that would "delete itself" moving forward, this way we could use the vector later on as a "crosshair / aiming mechanic" maybe upgrade? that would be cool.
